Broken Arrow, OK - Dinner with Ray and Sally


by Pat
We're at the Walmart parking lot right down the street from Ray's house for the night.
We took Ray, Sally and Ronnie out to dinner and had a very nice visit.  They gave us a tour of their new home that quite a few of you helped with.  It feels good that we all helped put them in a healthy environment.  
Their new single wide mobile home has vaulted ceilings, large master bedroom with a walk in closet and oversized tub.  Ray says he uses this tub everyday.  Ronnie's room is on the other end and there's a third room they use for crafts.  The living room and kitchen in the center of the mobile home is very spacious.
Also, two years ago, Ray Sr. had given me 5 quilt tops that Carol had set aside for her boys.  Rob and I bought fabric to match each quilt for the backing material and with the help of Carol's sister, assembled all the blankets.  Ray and Sally use their blanket everyday.
Ray is doing really well.  He has a blood draw and a doctors appt coming up.  He is in between chemo treatments and has to gain weight.  He has an amazing attitude and cherishes life everyday.
Sally has to work early in the morning so we are having breakfast with Ray and Ronnie before we take off.
It was worth the 12 hour drive backtracking to Oklahoma.  It was a very good night.
